Championship: The things you need to know this weekend | Football News


A big battle at both ends to kick things off

Rotherham vs Blackburn Rovers

There is one massive live game on Sky Sports this weekend, with plenty to play for at both ends as struggling Rotherham host high-flying Blackburn in the Sky Bet Championship.

The Millers have picked up just a single draw from their last five games and are just a sole point above the bottom three, leaving them at the mercy of the relegation zone pack if they fail to pick up a win at the New York Stadium.

Blackburn, meanwhile, are third in the table but there is a nine-point gap between themselves and Sheffield United in second. If they are to have any hope of closing that chasm, this is a must-win clash.

It is live on Sky Sports Football from 12pm. Kick-off is at 12.30pm.


Saturday 14th January 12:00pm


Kick off 12:30pm
